A Kenosha-area father who claims his daughter is being bullied by a kindergarten classmate has taken out a restraining order against the 5-year-old.

Brian Metzger told a Milwaukee TV station that his daughter has been threatened and attacked by her classmate at Prairie Lane Elementary School in Pleasant Prairie. A police report said the girl was kicked in the face and had sand and rocks thrown at her.

“She came home and said a student threatened her by saying, ‘I want to slit your throat and watch you bleed,’” Metzger said.

Metzger said he decided to get the restraining order because the school failed to protect his daughter.

“I think they should have done something a lot sooner. They’ve kept him in the same classroom with my daughter throughout this until Wednesday morning because Tuesday night I showed up with a restraining order,” Metzger said.
